RV battery care.
Although I am very happy with the power system I have in my RV I feel I would like to understand things better. I am using a Xantrax 2500 watt Freedom inverter/3 stage 100 amp charger; 4 x 6 volt golf...

Hi,
The solar panel should be connected to a charge controller--that will keep the panel from overcharging the battery bank.
Equalize about every 30 days.
Recharge before the battery bank reaches 50% discharged.
Here are a couple of websites to help you learn about RV power systems:

I do have a charge controller with my system but it seems to me that as long as there is sun on the panel the thing charges - maybe only about 3 - 4 amps, but it charges during the sunny part of the day even if the batteries have been fully charged by the inverter/charger.
Thanks for the links.
